A Talk with our Subscribers This is the ouly month in the year in which we favor our -uUserihers and patrons generally with a dun, making shift the rest of the year as host we can. For years our receipts at this season have fal len off with rather an. increase in business, a fact for which we can account in no other Way than that many suppose as we succeed ed in paying off our indebtedness on the property occupied as a dwelling and office we no longer need money! In order to do away with this impression, we Leg leave to state that being unable to build a new office, wo have purchased ihe house adjoin ing our dweliing for a printing office into which we purpose removing in a few weeks,) and have gone into debt Jor it —so that those who owe us, either for subscrip tion, advertising or job work, can lay aside the notion imbedded in their noddles that we do .not need money, and give us a call at their earliest convenience. There are some who have been owing us too long, hut as we have made ample al lowance for hard times and other excuses, these need not be surprised if thev do not receive the Gazette after April court.

With the exception of stealing a gov- ] eminent vessel laden with oil for the south- j n light houses, and the reported seizure ; of a sloop with supplies for the ships of j war in Pensacola, there are no special news j from the Kingdom of Traitordoui. Gov. j Houston has succumbed to the revolution ists, but will it is said appeal to the peo- j pie. In Alabama a proposition recogniz ing the right of the people to judge their • rulers at the ballot box, was promptly voted down by the secession convention, thus j proving how much democracy there was 'n i the men who have her •tofore led northern democrats by the nose. The South faro- ! lioians, who were lately full of fight, are in ecstacics at the prospect of Fort Sum ter being evacuated without a blow. In Virginia and Maryland there is strong j reason to believe that a conspiracy is on foot to raise the standard of treason, and unless strong measures are adopted by the Union inea the hellhounds at work there will plunce those .States into commotion, if I not civil wa: In the meai time the North is standing , idle, looking on as if tyrants and trai- j TOR* of the prest at day were different from others recorded ie history since history has been written. Ibis, however will soon Lave an end. for In their arrogance the traitors south wil soou commit which viii compel resistance, and loth as we are to give if. onr opinion is settling down to a conviction that the sooner Pennsylvania ana all other .Stales true to the Union are put upon a war footing the Letter it will be —indeed such a course may be the means of avoiding the evil altogether. While we continue to hope for the best, yet such is our judgement off present events. the House of .Representatives on the 21et, Mr. Gibbucey presented a petition from inhabitants of Bratton -township, Mif flin county, for a law authorizing the selling and repairing of public roads in said county. Referred to Committee on Roads, Bridges and Canals. The Famine in Kansas The Special Committee of the Kansas Conference of the M. E. Church, to which was referred the question of the drouth and destitution in Kansas, made a report which was unanimously adopted. They sav : '* We have been careful to obtain all the information necessary to the formation of a correct opinion from ministers repre senting all parts of the State, and declare n • that in October last there were not provis s ions enough in the State nor means enough t in the State to procure them with, to pre ef s rve more than one half of the people - j from starvation." We have seen letters . written by former citizens of this county r corroborating this statement, and alleging - that unless supplies continue to be forwar e ded there will be much suffering. i Judge Sprague on Treason. — At the opening J of the United States District Court in Boston, 5 on Tuesday, Judge Sprague delivered a charge ' to the Grand Jury on the nature of treason. - lit- held that the notion of the General Gov > ' eminent being a mere confederacy was a fun , a omental and dangerous error; and that the | Constitution established a government with ! the highest attributes of sovereignty, llefer : ring to the clause which defines treason, he 1 maintained that " levying war" required a military assemblage to uudertake hostilities, - • not a mere conspiracy, however atrocious it might be. A treasonable purpose existed whenever the object was to prevent hv force the execution of any one law, as this would | he overthrowing the Government to that ex tent. But the sudden outbreak of a mob was a different affair, such bodies not designing to continue together. To take forcible pos j session of f'.rts, arsenals or other property ol . the United States, was a flagrant act of levy ing war. The Judge then alluded to the sub ect of | furnishing supplies to those engaged ii . iS | ona'ole schemes. A person iu league with j I those who were levying war, who should send i them money, provisions, arms or intelligence j i fur the purpose of aiding them, was a traitor, ! no matter how far distant from them, he : might be. The trial must take place within the limits of that State and district where the crime was committed. If, however, the | condition of either was such that the juii- ; cial tribunals could not perfurm their func tions, the crimes could nut he permitted, however atrocious they might be. Who arc Abolitionists. —The Southern Lit | era'-v Messenger, published at Richmond, Ya., gives this definition of an abolitionist: "An Abolitionist is any man who dues not love slavery for its own sake, as a divine in stitution ; who does not worship it as the cor i ner-Etonc of civil liberty; who does nut adore it as the only possible social condition on j which a perman-mtrepublicangovernmentcan }be erected; and who does not, in his inmost ! soul, desire to see it extended and perpetuated 1 over the whole earth, as a means of human reformation, second in dignity, importance and saeredncss alone to the Christian religion, lie who doss not love African slavery with this love is an Abolitionist." ' If tiiis is a true definition of au abolitionist there are only about six time dem . rats in . Lewistown. B®lThe election of John B. Sherman, by the Legislature of Ohio, as a member of the : United States Senate, in place of Hon. Sal- j 1 mon P. Chase, the Secretary of the Treasury, • is a well deserved tribute to a faithful, up right, and talented representative. Thehon • or could not have been more worthily bestow- I ed, nor the interests of his great State placed j in more competent and trustworthy hands. Louisiana Convention refused to ' consider a resolution providing fur the pubii- ; | cation of the eiect'un returns on the cu ./per ! i ation and secession question, it was repeat ! ediy asserted by the New Orleans papers that ' I the popular majority in the State was against secession. The refusal of the Convention to ! • permit the publication of the returns may be : taken as confirmatory of this assertion. f®"The recent vote in North Carolina, it 1 would be supposed, ought to have been taken as decisive of the position of the eople of t!iat State on the question of secession. Not ; withstanding the State decided against the j call of even a " Sovereign Convention," ihe I disuniooists persist in keeping up the agita ; tion. Here is a little speech which Mr. Pren 1 tice made a few evenings since in Louisville: 1 "Gentlemen, let us preserve the Union, against all influences, against all treachery, against all treason. I am getting to be an old man, but I will fight for the Union, 1 will die for the Union. Ken tuck iaiis, I will live j and die in no Northern Confederacy, in no | Southern Confederacy—but here where I am I now, in Kentucky, and in the Union." SaUOu Saturday a week a young man nam ed Jeremiah Sherman, residing in Hanover, Pa., applied some red precipitate to a car- 1 buncle upon his clnu, and going into the open air shortly afterwards wa? taken very ill, and died in a few niiuutes. teS" A serious causualty happened on the Pennsylvania Railroad, above Hunting don, on Wednesday night of last week. . As the mail train which left Pittsburgh in the evening was passing along near Peters : burg, there were some cattle on the track, • • and the engine could not be stopped until : it eame in contact with one of the ani s mals. The locomotive was damaged and i the baggage and mail car thrown friru the track. The baggage and mail car then 1 took fire from the stove, and A • mail matter, together with the baggage of > about eighty passengers, was destroved.— .

C£BAF. F. Shaw and Benj. F. Miller have started a new paper at Huntingdon called the Workingtueii's Advocate, which seems to be j a , under the fatherly care ofbhaw. The second resolution passed at a meeting organizing the new concern has the Bell aud Everett motto, j *' the Union, the Constitution, and the en- ; foroenient of the laws." and the third dis countenancing ''fraud and corruption in what ever shape it may present itself." jgi£y-The Arkansas Convention, after vot ing down au ordinance of secession, agreed, as a compromise ui asure, to submit to the people two propositions, one a secession or dinance, the other resolutions of a Union ten dency. Upon these propositions the people j are to vote in August next. The news of the rejection of the secession ordinance was ro- ■ ceived at Fort Smith and Van Buren with j great rejoicing. The Convention also appoin ted delegates to the Border State Convention, j Wife Murders in St. Louis. —The city of St. Louis is acquiring a most unenviable rep utation for the frequency of its wife-murder ars—attempted or actually perpetrated. But a few days ago a man was arrested there up ! on the well-grounded charge of bribing a physician to poison his wife, the mother of a young infant; and the St. Louis p-pera of Monday contain the account of a yet more shocking instance of man's barbarity to help less women. A brute named Patick Welsh, becoming incensed with his wife, who was on the eve of bearing him a child, attacked her j savagely with a heavy iron poker, beating her until her extremities were fearfully bruis ed and dislocated. Not satisfied with this, he actually thrust the poker down her throat, tearing and lacerating the tongue and flesh , dreadfully, and then fled, leaving his victim ! unconscious. She was taken to the hospital, where she expired in great agony a few days afterwards. The unborn infant died the day before its mother. Welsh has not yet been arrested. The Cathedral in the City oj Mexico. —This gorgeous Catholic edifice is said to be tha I most capacious structure for worship in Amer ica. It is 500 feet long, 420 feet wide, and capable of holding 30,000 persons. The ed ifice is thus described: " The building is not in conformity with anv order of architecture, although remarka bly lmnosing. The walls are built of un hewn basalt, but the front is covered with the most laborious carving, while massive pillars rise up against the wall for the support of its j i o fty towers. The interior is gorgeous almost bevond description, though the decorations are more remarkable for coathaess than taste. The choir is formed of rare carved woods, and elaborately covered with gilded images. The high altar" raised from the floor of an el evated platform, exhibits a profusion of can <) i ks, crosses and other ornaments of soi i-i - ! .r silver, and crowned by an image of the v irgin, decked in jewels estimated at th value of more than $2,500,000: and all other parts of the church are a perfect wil i derness of columns, statues, shrines, fc u' Jtc E LOCAL AFFAIRS e ®®B. K. Firoved, Agt, will remove his entire stock of dry goods and groceries to the house of Moses Montgomery, East . Market street, opposite Ritz's drug store, and will remain there for one month. — ; The goods will be disposed of AT COST, as be wishes to close out his full stock. He will open AUCTION on TUESDAY j E\ ENING, April 2d, which will continue one week. Auction expressly for the la dies on THURSDAY and SATURDAY AFTERNOONS, to commence at 2 o'clock. FRUIT. —Many persons allege that the peach crop has been destroyed by the cold weather, predicating their opinions on sun dry buds which have been examined and found to be black where the peach ought •to grow. So far as our observation ex tends, buds are not likely to be killed bv | frost at this season unless farther advanced * than most of them are in this neighbor hood, aud the true cause of these defective bads can probably be found in the un healthinc-ss of the trees, worms at the roots, Ac. Peaches and all other fruit are in greatest danger from frost when the blos som is opening, exposing the tender pis | tils and stamens to the cold air, and aftcr j wards when the fruit is formed. BOROUGH AFFAIRS. —The new Town Council will meet on Friday evening next. \V e have heard it suggested by a number of taxpayers that iu view of the hard times it would be advisable to lay as light a tax as possible, to embark in no expensive work, and to razee or cut off altogether sun dry expenditures which annually appear in the report. Others advocate a 3 mill tax, j urging that a surplus in the treasury never comes amiss, and that it is bad policy to reduce taxes to a lower figure, as most folks will growl as much at two as three mills. I - RKES. —As the proper season for plant ing trees is again here, we recommend the nursery of' Warner & Butts to the atten tion of all who desire to procure reliable trees, as they guarantee all sold by them ,to he what represented. In addition to j j their fiue stock 011 hand, a large lot will be i received in time for April court, which will afford an excellent opportunity to select choice varieties. j 1 s*2U3lrs. Wertz, well known as former i proprietress of the Valley street notion and grocery store, has purchased Iloltzworth's ' establishment, between the Union House 1 and Black Bear Hotel, East Market street, where she will open in a few days a new stock of groceries, confectioneries, and ( kniek knacks generally, which will be sold at low prices. Her many friends of course will give her a call. EMIGRATION MEETING. —A meeting of ' the colored citizens of this place was held j 1 on Monday evening, 31 r. Baptist in the , chair, when a resolution was offered by < John F. Thomas and adopted, instructing i ] the secretaries to publish a statement that so far as the proceedings of a previous 1 meeting were reported and published in the Gazette respecting a letter soliciting 1 1 j information and means from their white ] brethren to send an agent to Hayti to se- < ! lect a location, Ac. for that association, were j ineorreet, no such proceedings having been . I adopted by the society. The proposition : i emanated from Mr. Griffith, and not from j i the association. : ] - j j TEMPERANCE MEETING. —On Monday 1 i evening a rather small audienee assembled ' in the Town Hall and, after prayer by Dr. j j i Woods, listened tc short addresses by sev eral of our citizens. It was unanimously ' agreed that talk is not sufficient to meet I : e the demands of the cause, but action must be put forth. In accordance with this sen- ; i timent, a committee of eight was appoint ed to prepare and circulate for signa- j , tures a remonstrance against the grant : ing of any license* in Lewistown by the Court which sits next week ; and to pro- ! cure all needed or practicable information respecting the alleged illegal sale of liquor anil other violations of law aud morality charged upon certain parties. It is to be hoped that the labors of this committee will be instrumental in ferreting out the offenders against the peace and order of' our community, and that by these meet ings a more healthy and effective opposi tion to ail practice and support of intern- : perance may be excited. There is to be another meeting on next Monday evening. weather was quite cold at the close of last week, but moderated again on Monday, since which showers and warm sunshiue have given ?in impetus to buds, grass, Ac. that will change the face of na ture in a few days if continued. jtegu-The Lewistown Brass Band, agist ed by one of our String Bands, ""ill give a -rt in the Town Hall on this (Thurs day) evceuig.
